Description

Electrode that high-pressure discharge lamp is used and high-pressure discharge lamp and manufacture method thereof
The application is based on Japanese patent application No.2000-116699, No.2000-188785 and No.2001-94226, and proposes domestic priority with two applications in front, and its content herein as a reference and combined use.
Technical field
The present invention relates to the used electrode of a kind of high-pressure discharge lamp and a kind of high-pressure discharge lamp and manufacture method thereof.
Background technology
In recent years, the projection display device for example development of liquid crystal projection apparatus is comparatively active.In this projection section image display apparatus, must possess a high-intensity light source approaching with point-source of light.Usually utilize for example a kind of high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp of a kind of high-pressure discharge lamp or a kind of short arc formula metal halide lamp to be used as this light source.
One of major technique task of development short arc formula high-pressure discharge lamp is to prolong its useful life by the life characteristic that improves lamp.Promptly, generally, in short arc formula high-pressure discharge lamp, the tungsten filament that forms electrode melts and disperses, produce distortion and loss owing to the excessive temperature increase of electrode tip makes electrode end, and the tungsten of dispersing accumulates on the inner surface of luminous tube and make the luminous tube blackening.The blackening of the inner surface of luminous tube causes that luminous flux descends too early.In order to address this problem, design and the relevant multiple common technology of manufacture method thereof have been studied now with the used electrode of short arc formula high-pressure discharge lamp.
In the prior art relevant, developed a kind of electrode with structure as shown in Figure 1 with the design of above-mentioned electrode.Electrode 901 shown in Fig. 1 is to combine with a cylindrical electrode part 903 by the electrode stem 902 that is had than small axle diameter to form, and the internal diameter of described cylindrical electrode part 903 is greater than the diameter of axle of electrode stem 902.The operation characteristic of electrode is: (1) cylindrical electrode part 903 is passed to the temperature that electrode stem one side reduces electrode end 904 rapidly by the heat that will produce, and the fusing by electrode metal and disperse distortion and the loss that suppresses electrode end 904; (2) by having the work than the electrode stem 902 of small axle diameter, the integral body of electrode 901 is adiabatic, so just can impel the volatilization that is enclosed in the luminescent material in the luminous tube.
A kind of electrode as electrode 901 is undertaken by the block to high melting point metal materials such as tungsten normally that milled processed makes, and particularly be used as anode in short arc formula high-pressure discharge lamp such as extra-high-pressure mercury vapour lamp and DC (direct current) discharge type high pressure xenon lamp, above-mentioned these lamps all stand the rising of temperature.
Simultaneously, be used for metal halide lamp and short arc formula high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp at first with the electrode of the high-pressure discharge lamp same configuration that is used for the illumination of common long arc type, short arc formula high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp is used as the light source of projection display device in recent years.As shown in Figure 2, electrode 911 is to be formed by electrode stem of being made by common used tungsten 912 and the coil 913 that formed by the tungsten filament that has than small axle diameter.But, in the short arc formula high-pressure discharge lamp that uses as the electrode of electrode 911, can not avoid the distortion and the loss of the above-mentioned electrode end that fusing and dispersion owing to tungsten electrode material cause, so just be difficult to prolong the useful life of lamp.
Therefore, as a kind of method of the problem that solves the life-span that prolongs this lamp, restudied the electrode that is used for common short arc formula high-pressure discharge lamp and has the basic structure shown in Fig. 1 now.But,, now studied and had identical and electrode that can cheaply make with electrode 901 basic structures shown in Fig. 1 because it is higher to make the cost of electrode by the mode of grinding.For example, in the Japan Patent No.H10-92377 of Japan Patent No.2820864 and pending trial, disclosed the prior art relevant with kind electrode.
The example of electrode is shown in Fig. 3 A and 3B in the above-mentioned patent.Electrode 921 is made by two technical processs, compare with above-mentioned grinding technics process, these two technical processs are comparatively simple: (a) at first, tungsten filament coil 923 is wound on the discharge end of tungsten electrode bar 922 (referring to Fig. 3 A), (b) the discharge side of the discharge side of electrode stem 922 and coil 923 melts by so-called electric discharge and fuses together, and is the electrode end 924 of hemisphere (referring to Fig. 3 B) substantially thereby form one.
In electrode 921, has same effect by the electrode end 904 of terminal 924 parts that form of coil 923 and dome electrode and cylindrical part 903 shown in Fig. 1 and electrode 901.Therefore, the heat in the dome electrode end 924 just is sent to coil 923 rapidly and the temperature of reduction electrode end 924.In this mode, even electrode utilizes the manufacturing of lower-cost electric discharge, the fusing of electrode material and disperse and the distortion and the loss of electrode end also all can be suppressed, thus prolonged the life-span of lamp.
Please note: another piece prior art relevant with the life span that improves high-pressure discharge lamp is to utilize highly purified tungsten to be used as a kind of method of electrode material, disclosed this method in the Japan Patent No.H9-165641 of pending trial.Shown a result who utilizes high-purity tungsten herein, wherein, the total amount of element al, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, Si, Sn, Na, K, Mo, U and Th is controlled to the 10ppm of basis tungsten W in the attached constituent, and described tungsten is used as the life-span that electrode (being in particular anode) material can improve the lamp electrode effectively in the big discharge lamp of height output.
According to above-mentioned correlation technique, the inventor has developed a kind of short arc formula high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp that can be used as light source in projection display device.In development process, the inventor has set two targets relevant especially with the performance of the desired lamp in market.Described target is: (1) is provided with spacing distance between electrode, in other words, the distance that is arranged between the discharge end of two electrodes of the positioned opposite in the luminous tube is no more than 1.5mm, and this distance just can improve the utilance of light like this less than common interval in conjunction with a speculum time; (2) make the life span of lamp reach 3000 hours at least.The life span (will be described below) that please notes (2) lamp is to be determined by the ageing time of lamp, and ageing time is meant in luminescence process, and the mean flow rate conservation rate of 9 maintenances of the luminous flux conservation rate of the lamp unit of prediction from the phosphor screen dropped to for 50% required time.
When beginning to develop, the inventor has studied a kind of short arc formula high-pressure discharge lamp, compares with general lamp, and this lamp has short distance and utilized the electrode of making based on the electric discharge of the method in the above-mentioned patent (Fig. 3 A and 3B) between electrode.But when the inventor detected the overall characteristic parameter of the lamp that utilizes kind electrode and make, the inventor found at the characterisitic parameter of lamp such as voltage and has bigger variation between the life-span that this just means that this lamp lacks commercial survivability.
Secondly, when the above-mentioned variation that produces in the characterisitic parameter to lamp is studied, the inventor recognizes that the shape of the fusion of the electrode tip that utilizes traditional electric discharge production is not uniform hemisphere, but having produced different shape and size, these different shape and size are the reason of the characterisitic parameter variation of lamp.For example, when the shape of electrode end is not hemisphere, can produce such situation, wherein, electrical discharge arc departs from mutually with the axis between two electrodes.Therefore, the length of electrical discharge arc is just long than design load, and therefore, modulating voltage increases and the overrate scope.
Particularly, when within the target zone 1.5mm of distance between electrodes the inventor or less than this target, can know and recognize that modulating voltage can increase according to the fluctuation that this variation of discharge arc length produces.In addition, when the shape and size of the fusion of the electrode end between lamp changed, the temperature of electrode end just changed in discharge process, will cause the variation in the life-span of lamp like this.

The cladding of luminous tube 101 be form by quartz and substantially for spherical. Relative tungsten electrode 102 and 103 is by molybdenum sheet 106 and 107 and be sealed in respectively in sealer 104 and 105.Described molybdenum sheet 106 also links to each other with 109 with the molybdenum lead 108 of outside respectively with 107.According to the power output of lamp, the length that luminous tube 101 has for 30mm to 100mm, its largest outer diameter Do is 5mm to 20mm, and the maximum inner diameter Di of luminous tube 111 is 2mm to 14mm.
Herein, the distance D e between the tungsten electrode 102 and 103 is set in the scope of about 1.5mm to 2.5mm usually.But in high-pressure discharge lamp of the present invention, higher and improve brightness on the phosphor screen for the utilance that makes light, the value of described distance D e should be not more than 1.5mm, preferably is controlled in the scope of 0.5mm to 1.5mm.In fact, the manufacture method of electrode of the present invention is not limited in its spacing used in high-pressure discharge lamp from for 1.5mm or littler electrode, and electrode manufacturing method of the present invention also is applicable to the electrode of general high-pressure discharge lamp.
A kind of luminescent material mercury 110 and being used for carry out the rare gas of assistant starting such as argon, krypton, xenon with halogen such as iodine and bromine by globality be sealed in the emitting space 111.The amount of the mercury 110 of sealing preferably is controlled at the 150mg/cm at least of the volume of luminous tube 111 3Scope in (in the lamp lighting process, being about 150bar or higher mercury steam pressure).Sealing load that need to set rare gas is when cooling in the scope at 0.1bar to 10bar.
Please note: for example, when utilizing bromine, just need be set in 10 as halogen species -9Mol/cm 3To 10 -5Mol/cm 3Scope in.Sealing so just can be by returning back to the blackening that described electrode suppresses luminous tube from the tungsten that electrode is dispersed on the inner surface that is deposited on luminous tube 101.Simultaneously, as shown in Figure 5, a complete lamp 200 of being constructed has a pedestal 120 that is installed in an end of luminous tube 101, and this complete lamp 200 also is equipped with a speculum 210, and above-mentioned these elements have constituted lamp unit 300 together.
In addition, shown in Fig. 6 A and 6B, electrode 102 (electrode 103 is as the same) is made by a kind of process for making, and wherein, (a) silk footpath is wrapped in (referring to Fig. 6 A) around the tungsten electrode bar 122 that the diameter of axle is 0.4mm for the double-deck tungsten filament coil 123 of 0.2mm; (b) with the end fusion of tungsten electrode bar 122 and double-deck tungsten coil 123 and form a hemisphere as an electrode end 124 (referring to Fig. 6 B).
At first, following content will be described the electrode manufacturing method of first embodiment of the present invention in detail.In this embodiment, argon plasma welder be used to carry out tungsten electrode bar 122 and double-deck tungsten coil 123 the end fusion process therefor and form a electrode with half-spherical tip 124.
To describe the fusion process therefor of carrying out by the argon plasma welder herein in detail.At this moment, as shown in Figure 7, the distance D p from the end of tungsten electrode 122 and double-layer coil 123 to the end of the electrode (negative pole) 401 of plasma welder 400 is set and remains 1.0mm, and carries out arc discharge.
This fusion process therefor be carry out by the arc discharge of a plurality of interval property and between arc discharge, should provide at least one cooling time.Fig. 8 has shown a particular case of this alloying process.In this example, alloying process P1 to P4 has carried out at intervals altogether 4 times and all had a cooling time between each fusion.
Fuse for the first time P1 and be the arc discharge that arc current by 26A carries out 50msec and carry out, and carried out continuously three times with 0.4 second interval.By this technical process, the end of the end of tungsten electrode 122 and double-deck tungsten coil 123 fuses together substantially, but does not form good sphere.
Next step is the cooling time in about 3 seconds, and the end of tungsten electrode bar 122 and double-layer coil 123 loses the red heat state that causes owing to arc discharge and returns back to the metallic luster state.Please note: the cooling among the present invention not only comprises the pressure cooling by certain mode, but also comprises and only make electrode carry out natural cooling.Be natural cooling the cooling time between each fusion shown in Fig. 8.
Carry out secondary fusion below.Fuse for the second time P2 and be the arc discharge that arc current by 26A carries out 50msec and carry out, and arc discharge carried out twice continuously with 0.4 second the time interval.According to this step, the end of tungsten electrode 122 and double-layer coil 123 just returns back to the red heat state and fuses, and near forming good hemisphere.
Then, after the cooling of carrying out for 3 seconds, utilize the arc current of 26A to carry out the arc discharge of 50msec and fuse P3 for the third time.After carrying out 1.5 seconds further cooling, utilize the arc current of 26A to carry out the arc discharge of 50msec and carry out fusion P4 the 4th time.By above-mentioned fusion P1 to P4, the end of tungsten electrode bar 122 and double-deck tungsten coil 123 just forms the hemisphere of a basic perfect.
In this mode, by reserving cooling time simultaneously fusing between one and a plurality of arc discharge, it is average on the whole that the temperature of the end of tungsten electrode 122 and double-deck tungsten coil 123 raises, and so just can more easily control fusion temperature.Based on this point, just can obtain a part that has the hemisphere ideal electrode terminal 124 of durability and do not have defective such as hole or incomplete fusion on it.

Please note: the example of desirable alloying process is not limited in example shown in Figure 8.Can set the amount of some conditions, thereby reach purpose of the present invention as the length of the quantity of the arc discharge in each fusion and the time interval between the arc discharge, cooling time and the arc current that in scope, changes.
For example, as shown in Figure 9, carry out fusing the first time P1 by carrying out 4 arc discharges with 0.6 second the time interval, reserve 2 seconds cooling time, carry out 2 arc discharges and carry out fusing the second time P2 with 0.4 second the time interval then, reserve 3 seconds cooling time, carry out 1 arc discharge then and fuse P3 for the third time, reserve 1.5 seconds cooling time, carry out 1 arc discharge at last and carry out the 4th fusion P4, just can form an ideal hemispherical of the part that does not remain defective such as hole or incomplete fusion by above-mentioned steps.
Another kind of alternative mode is, when the possibility that forms a good hemisphere descends a little, just can obtain electrode end 124 in allowed band by technical process shown in Figure 10, in Figure 10, carry out 2 arc discharges and carry out fusing the first time P1 with 0.2 second the time interval (arc current 23A), after carrying out 4 seconds cooling, carry out 1 arc discharge and carry out fusion P2 the 2nd time, after carrying out 1.5 seconds further cooling, carry out 1 arc discharge and carry out fusion P3 the 3rd time.
Please note: wish in the production to utilize so-called pure pure tungsten, attached constituent wherein such as the total amount of Al, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, Si, Sn, Na, K, Mo, U and Th to be restricted to 5ppm or still less to be used as tungsten electrode 122 and the material of double-layer coil 123.In addition, in above-mentioned attached constituent, the total amount of alkalinous metal Na, K, Fe, Ni, Cr and Al need be limited in 3ppm or still less.

Can see that from Figure 11 in 500 hours ageing time, the luminous flux conservation rate that the neither one present embodiment detects lamp is lower than 50%.Particularly, even after at least 3000 hours ageing time, still have 50% or higher luminous flux conservation rate with g3, g4 and the represented lamp of g5.In other words, these light fixtures have at least 3000 hours life-span.
In addition, as shown in figure 12, the life characteristics of general detection lamp has bigger variation between each lamp.From lamp (g11 shown in Figure 12 and g12) to lamp (g16 the figure), their life characteristics all changes, wherein, lamp g11 and g12 luminous flux conservation rate are dropped rapidly in 500 hours ageing time and are lower than 50% level, and lamp g16 remains on the luminous flux conservation rate in 3000 hours ageing time and is higher than on 50% the higher level.
In this case, in the lamp that the luminous flux conservation rate descends, can be observed the even blackening of luminous tube and along with ageing time surpassed 1000 hours and the decline (because phenomenon that bleaches that the crystallization again of quartz causes) of the light transmittance of the quartz of the luminous tube that produces.When lamp blackening or light transmittance descend when excessive, the luminous flux conservation rate descends and is lower than 50% lamp and will stands the expansion of the increase of temperature and luminous tube, particularly top part and damage.Please note: the difference in Figure 11 and Figure 12 number (*) is each and detects the point that lamp damages.
In addition, when the electrode that detects lamp disconnects and when studying, can find particularly luminous flux conservation rate decline in 500 hours or shorter ageing time and the fusion state that is lower than the electrode tip of 50% detection lamp (utility lamp) is uneven life tests after.That is to say, cause defective by fusion process therefor, the part of the hole in the half-spherical tip 924 of the fusion as shown in Figure 13 A and the tungsten coil 923 of the part that should be hemisphere 924 as shown in Figure 13 B is not fused yet.
The reason that these defectives produce is as follows.Be: the optimum fusion temperature during the general arc type that once discharges fuses when being difficult to be controlled at the consumable electrode end.Particularly, because the part that the local rising suddenly of the temperature of electrode tip and excessive rising promptly can exist hole and incomplete fusion.
On the contrary, the fusion process therefor of the hemisphere of the electrode end 124 of formation lamp is not a described general arc discharge method in the present embodiment, but between one and a plurality of arc discharge, fuse at intervals, between each fusion, providing one period cooling time simultaneously.Therefore, the rising of the temperature of electrode tip is to control uniformly and easily generally.According to this method, in electrode 102 end 124 of (with 103), just there are not described defective such as hole and incomplete fusion part, this lamp has shown life characteristic preferably.
In addition, in above-mentioned detection, in ageing time is 1000 hours to 3000 hours process, descend and be lower than 50% detection lamp (g13 to g15 among Figure 12) for the luminous flux conservation rate, the fusion state of the end 924 of electrode 921 looks even, but when scrutinizing the state of tungsten crystal, the size that can find the crystal grain in the tungsten crystal is less than the size of the crystal grain that the luminous flux conservation rate is kept being at least 50% detection lamp in 3000 hours ageing time.
As shown in figure 14, in fusion process, the crystal in the electrode end is radial growth normally, and in the crystal structure process, the size of crystal grain is based on the condition of melting process.Please note: the average crystal grain diameter in the tungsten crystal is by the extreme length size d1 that makes progress of footpath with in the midpoint of d1 and determined with the perpendicular size d2 of the line of d1.In fusion process, be difficult to obtain the independent correlation (as the intensity of arc current, the length of discharge time, the number and the length of the time interval therebetween and cooling time of arc discharge in each fusion) between each condition.But the basic condition that the inventor finds is: the temperature in alloying process is high more, and the time of fusion is long more and particle diameter in the crystal is just big more.
Therefore, the inventor has carried out detecting for the second time average grain diameter size (mean values of a plurality of representational crystal grain) in the tungsten crystal of studying electrode end and correlation between life characteristic parameter such as the luminous flux conservation rate.Within the specific limits by changing the electrode sample that different condition manufacturings has different fusion states and tungsten crystal state (particle diameter), described scope can satisfy two conditions of alloying process of the electrode tip of lamp, (i) carrying out repeatedly fusion by at least arc discharge at intervals once and between the multiple discharge, (ii) between fusion, provide one period cooling time.In detecting for the second time, just use these electrodes.
Please note: in detecting for the second time, the total amount of above-mentioned attached constituent is 5ppm, and the total amount of contained alkalinous metal Na, K, Fe, Ni, Cr and Al is 3ppm in these attached constituents.
For the second time the result who detects as shown in figure 15, this result has proved that the average grain diameter da of tungsten crystal of electrode end is big more, resulting life characteristic parameter is good more.Particularly, this result has proved: when the average crystal grain diameter that detects lamp is 100 μ m or bigger (g24 to g26 shown in Figure 15), the raising effect of the life characteristic of lamp sharply increases, and the luminous flux conservation rate in the time of can obtaining surpassing 3000 hours ageing time is at least 50%, and this makes us rejoicing in.In other words, if average grain diameter is 100 μ m or bigger, just can obtain the high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp that a kind of life-span is at least 3000 hours.
In addition, this result also proves: when average grain diameter is 200 μ m or bigger (g26 among Figure 15), can obtain higher luminous flux conservation rate, the luminous flux conservation rate when ageing time is 6000 hours is at least 50% (in other words, the life-span of lamp was at least 6000 hours).
For example, though in Figure 15, do not show, when being 200 μ m, after 6000 hours ageing time, can obtain 51% light flux conservation rate according to discharge cycles shown in Figure 8 average grain diameter da in the tungsten crystal of the electrode end of fusion.In addition, according to same mode, when utilizing the discharge cycle shown in Fig. 9 to fuse, when the average grain diameter da of the tungsten crystal of electrode end is 200 μ m, can obtain the satisfactory lifetime characteristics parameter.
In addition, provable; When the average grain diameter in the tungsten crystal is big, can suppress the blackening of luminous tube 101.Therefore, the reason that improves the luminous flux conservation rate is and suppresses tungsten and disperse from electrode end and make the luminous tube blackening.In addition, the Another reason that improves the luminous flux conservation rate is: the diameter of the crystal grain of electrode tip is big more, and its heat conductivity is good more, but like this with regard to the conduction of accelerated heat to the electrode rear portion, thereby the heat of minimizing electrode tip.
In addition, the inventor utilizes the high-pressure discharge lamp of this embodiment to carry out detecting for the third time, in order to study the relation between a plurality of tungsten material electrodes and the light flux conservation rate, the fusion of the electrode of Jian Ceing for the third time is to carry out according to the discharge cycles shown in Fig. 8.Testing result as shown in figure 16.
In Figure 16, T is the total amount (unit: ppm) of the attached constituent in the electrode material of each detection lamp.What A indicated is the total amount (unit: ppm) of alkalinous metal Na, K, Fe, Ni, Cr and Al in the attached constituent.For example, life characteristic by the detection lamp shown in the g31 in, the total amount of the attached constituent of electrode material is 10ppm, wherein the total amount of alkalinous metal Na, K, Fe, Ni, Cr and Al is 5ppm.
From Figure 16, can see, when the total amount of attached constituent is reduced to less than 10ppm, light flux conservation rate is improved, and particularly, the minimizing of alkalinous metal Na, K, Fe, Ni, Cr and Al in the attached constituent has bigger influence to the raising of luminous flux conservation rate.Particularly, provable: as, just the amount of alkalinous metal Na, K, Fe, Ni, Cr and Al in the attached constituent need to be reduced to 3ppm or still less for the life-span (ageing time of lamp drops to until the luminous flux conservation rate and is lower than 50%) that makes lamp reaches 3000 hours or more.
Attached constituent in the tungsten electrode has two kinds of influences to the life characteristic of lamp: (i) since described attached constitute react with airtight halogen in ageing process as the alkalinous metal from the tungsten material, dispersed, and make the quantity not sufficient of the required halogen of the halogen cycle that is used for suppressing the luminous tube blackening and carries out, (ii) the quartz of attached constituent of the part of vaporize and luminous tube reacts and has formed the nucleus that carries out crystallization again, thereby has quickened the loss of quartzy light transmittance.
Such as above-mentioned detect for the third time proof, in the high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp of present embodiment, by in electrode material, utilizing highly purified tungsten electrode, both can suppress blackening owing to the aging luminous tube that causes, can suppress the loss of the light transmittance of luminous tube quartz again, the total amount of the attached constituent except tungsten in the high-purity tungsten electrode has reduced, and the total amount of special metal in the attached constituent such as alkalinous metal has reduced.
Second embodiment
To explain the second embodiment of the present invention below.
As described in first embodiment, by heating and fusing at intervals even just can suppress variation in the shape of electrode end by the arc discharge fusion, but the inventor estimates and utilizes the method for laser processing more to have superiority on principle after further the method for analysis and utilization laser manufacturing electrode has higher accuracy than the method among first embodiment.That is to say, can estimate; Because used laser post is radiated position and the power that can control radiation on the electrode end 124 more accurately in the laser processing, so just can reduce the variation in the shape and size of fusion.
Therefore, the inventor studies the electrode manufacturing method of foundation laser processing.Generating laser such as CO 2Generating laser and laser diode (LD, semiconductor laser transmitter) reflector is relatively to be suitable in metal processing, but the inventor has selected a kind of Nd-YAG pulse laser reflector for use, and the wavelength that this reflector sends is the laser of 1064nm.Particularly, when fusing and processing electrode end 124, the above-mentioned working condition that can further improve the laser fusion method of accuracy is studied.Next step, the inventor has prepared to utilize the detection lamp of the electrode of making according to laser processing method under this working condition, and has detected the characterisitic parameter of lamp such as the voltage and the luminous flux conservation rate of lamp.In addition, the inventor has observed the fusion shape and size of fusion electrode end 124 simultaneously, and has studied the correlation between the characterisitic parameter of the lamp that detects.
Figure 17 has shown and has been used to fuse a kind of schematic configuration that electrode is not held 124 Nd-YAG laser fusion device 500 in the present embodiment.Please note: 501 among Figure 17 is cavitys, is provided with an electrode therein, and parts 502 are that wavelength is a vibrator of the Nd-YAG pulse laser of 1064nm, and parts 503 are an optical fiber, and parts 504 are optical systems.
Herein, the fusion of electrode end 124 is carried out by two production processes: the tungsten electrode bar 122 that (1) will be wound with double-deck tungsten coil 123 is arranged in the described cavity 501, be filled with argon gas in the described cavity 501, (2) with laser emission to the end of tungsten electrode bar 122 and double-deck tungsten coil 122 and carry out fuse process.
Please note: except the fusion method of electrode, be identical among the design of used detection lamp and first embodiment in the research.That is, the input power of lamp is set at 150W, and luminous tube is of a size of: the largest outer diameter Do of the mid portion of pipe (referring to Fig. 4) is 4.4mm for the maximum inner diameter Di (referring to Fig. 4) of 9.4mm pipe.In addition, the distance D e between two electrode ends is 1.1mm, and the internal capacity of pipe is 0.06cm 3And the length L o of pipe (referring to Fig. 4) is 57mm.In addition, (the quality volumetric ratio of pipe is 190mg/cm to be sealed with the mercury of 11.4mg in pipe 3, equal the mercury steam pressure of 190bar in lighting process) and the argon of 200mbar.Please note: tungsten electrode bar 122 and tungsten coil 123 used materials are so-called pure high-purity tungsten in the present embodiment, and wherein, the maximum of the total amount of the above-mentioned attached constituent in the tungsten is restricted to 10ppm.But, wish to use purer tungsten naturally, wherein the total amount of attached constituent is 5ppm and the total amount of wherein alkalinous metal Na, K, Fe, Ni, Cr and Al is 3ppm, this with first embodiment in be identical.
In addition, be identical to the detection of characterisitic parameter such as life tests and the detection that detects the luminous flux conservation rate of lamp with mode among first embodiment.That is to say that the life tests that detects lamp is by being assembled into the lamp unit 300 shown in Fig. 5 and carrying out through over-illumination 3.5 hours and 0.5 hour cycle of disconnection.In addition, just can obtain the mean value of brightness at 9 from the fluoroscopic center of lamp unit 300, according to this result, just can detect mean flow rate conservation rate (ratio of mean flow rate and 3 hours ageing times) according to ansi standard IT7.215-1992, and with this as the luminous flux conservation rate of lamp in the life-span.
At first, Figure 18 has shown according to the working condition of laser processing method the result when carrying out laser emission continuously.As shown in figure 18, the fusion shape of electrode end 124 is compared with hemisphere and is more resembled a spheroid, and therefore, this processing procedure is inappropriate as the fusion method of electrode end 124.This is because when carrying out laser emission continuously, the rising that the treatment temperature of electrode tip is rapid and excessive and make the too many of electrode end 124 fusings.
Based on above discovery, the inventor finds with preset time at interval and repeat laser emission with predetermined times to be used as working condition more suitable.This is basic process for making in the laser fusion method of present embodiment.According to this technical process, when electrode end 124 is fused, treatment temperature can be controlled within the suitable scope, so just can adjust and make its shape electrode end 124 more near hemisphere.
Please note; In this case, found that the frequency range of 1Hz to 20Hz is suitable for repeating to handle the time interval of laser emission.In laser oscillator 502, utilize known method with regard to this repetition rate of may command.Figure 19 has shown exemplary in the laser emission cycle that the inventor sets according to the basic production condition of the electrode manufacturing method of this embodiment.The example that shows among Figure 19 carries out the example that 5 radiation fuse at intervals altogether for the repetition rate of utilizing 4Hz.Please note: the fusion temperature in first embodiment is to be controlled by the number of times of arc discharge, but also can reach same effect by the output of regulating laser in this embodiment.In other words, in example shown in Figure 19, the output of laser in (the 5th) laser emission is slightly less than the laser output of front the last time, but, this is that this is identical with controlling the effect that reaches by the number of arc discharge because along with the carrying out of annealing crystallization has again taken place.In fact, can be set the time interval of controlling according to the mode identical with first embodiment between the laser emission of interval property.
In addition, utilize method that annealing carries out crystallization again except reduce with last radiation that other radiation are compared in laser output, also can reduce the laser of a plurality of last laser emissions one by one and export.
Figure 20 has shown an example of the fusion shape of electrode end 124 in this case.As shown in Figure 20, as the result who carries out the laser treatment of laser emission at intervals, the shape after the processing of provable electrode end 124 is hemisphere substantially, and the variation in the size of fusion is suppressed and is improved.Please note: this result proves that also the average grain diameter that has realized in the crystallization again is at least 200 μ m.
The result of the detection that will be described as detecting the main purpose of the variation in the characterisitic parameter of the lamp between a plurality of lamps below and carry out, the electrode end 124 that is used to make the electrode that detects lamp utilizes above-mentioned laser processing method fusion and handles.
In this research, after 1 hour ageing time, at first measured the voltage V1a of lamp.The result who finds is decreased to V1a=61+5V for the variation of the voltage between a plurality of lamps.The inhibition that this variation is carried out is considered to the result that the precision of the fusion of electrode 124 improves, and makes the shape and size of electrode become more even like this.If used kind electrode, just can reduce the variation among the distance between electrodes De substantially.That is to say, when the shape of electrode end 124 changes, electrical discharge arc is just removed from the axis between two electrodes in the lighting process, just means that also distance between electrodes De is longer than the value of design, and the voltage of lamp may increase and above the scope of initial rated value.But the method that has demonstrated by utilizing present embodiment just can reduce this variation.
Simultaneously, during measuring light flux conservation rate φ 1a, the result of measurement is φ 1a=78+8% after 3000 hours the lamp ageing times, and the variation that this result demonstrates between the lamp has reduced.Therefore, this just proves the inventor and has realized more definitely that the life-span of lamp reaches 3000 hours or multiple target more.
Please note: the improvement of the variation in the luminous flux conservation rate is also considered because the fusion shape and size of electrode end 124 become more evenly, the vaporized state of the tungsten of fewer fluctuation between the variations in temperature in the lighting process between a plurality of lamps and the lamp.
As mentioned above, produce electrode by the laser fusion method of utilizing working condition, wherein, the fusion of electrode end 124 is to be undertaken by the laser emission of carrying out predetermined number at intervals, electrode end more certainty fuses into a hemisphere, and the variation of the shape and size between the lamp is suppressed.Therefore, prove:, also improve to confirmability the life-span of high-pressure discharge lamp even the arc length that high-pressure discharge lamp has is shorter than utility lamp.
